Hello,
I know this is not a sudo issue but i'm only on this security related list and since you should be security sensitive .... pls let me ask this.
This is a Debian Sid, weekly updated. Installed 'tiger' and it found 269 binaries (mostly in /usr/bin) which do not belong to any package. I checked this carefully, and it's true.
For example, i could launch stuff like mp3cd or xchat which got deinstalled long time ago. And apt is configured to auto-purge anything, although the binary should be removed anyway.
According to aptitude it was purged.
I am starting to loose my confidence into the Debian package management. Can someone tell me how this can happen ? Do you experience the same thing ?
